If you have (still) some smokers left in your place of work, you know that it is in the best interests of everybody that the whole place is smoke free. The law provides for much of this, but you still do not want the unsightly look of a huddle of people standing outside the front door smoking away.
But a certain amount of leeway is needed to be given to these poor mites, after all they are not breaking any laws, but they certainly are not helping themselves through their actions. If you must provide a location for the smokers to smoke then try to make it as out of sight as possible, this helps not to tempt those who themselves have given up, and it makes it that little bit more awkward for those who still pertain.
And of course there is the overall health of the the company, if certain members of your company are smokers, this brings down the health & well-being of the company. If you have health insurance for employees of the company then this might cause slight problems, as not everybody will be at the same standard of healthiness, and that might affect the costs, and that would be unfair on everybody else.
